Oh yes, there is! - Well, at least in the tabloids. I don't know how many ordinary people cares.
As I see it. If Frederik wish to risk his neck to get home by insisting on driving across a closed bridge in the middle of a storm it's his neck and his problem.

Actually, the court has issued a statement saying that it was a wrong decision by Frederik to drive across a closed bridge, not once but twice. Because he also crossed the bridge in the afternoon when it had just been closed.
The statement reads: The Crown Princee is sorry that it happened and (he) can well understand that the situation caused additional frustrations and anger among the people who had been waiting for many hours to cross the bridge. It was a wrong decision to accept te opportunity for the car to continue and the Crown Prince regrets that".
- Excellent! In my opinion that was the best possible thing he could do.
More so because Frederik actually, shall we say, interpreted the truth upon arriving in Herning where he told reporters that they made it (crossed the bridge) just before closing.

Frederik crossed the bridge twice:

At 15.15 where he proceeded across the bridge without formal permission.
And again at night where he had been given permission by the local police to cross.
- Now you perhaps begin to understand why we Danes are often labelled the happiest people in the world. If a thing like that can cause headlines, our problems are few indeed.

PET will now review the procedures ensuring that in the future there will be no crossing of closed bridges during a storm. - If for no other reason than not to endanger rescue workers should there be an accident on a bridge during a storm, presumably. But also, I guess, to ensure the person they are protecting isn't killed by mother nature.

More details are emerging. It turns out that PET was in contact with the local police when the Saturday afternoon arrived at the bridge. The local police prohibited Frederik and his escort from crossing the bridge and said so to the PET officers. They were however allowed to cross the barriers for safety reasons. (more room to manouvre). But once they had crossed the barrier, both cars sped up and continued across the bridge.
The same thing apparently happened at night on the way back. Once past the barrier the cars sped up and continued over the bridge.
- Whether that happened because the PET officers on duty were too obliging towards Frederik or whether Frederik asked the PET officers to "fix it" is an open question.
